The Grammys is basically the Superbowl of Fashion & Music!

It is my favorite award show every year and the outfits and performances never disappoint and this year was no different.

My favorite performances of the night were:

1. Rihanna & Mikky Ecko

3. Bob Marley Tribute featuring:

Sting, Bruno Mars, Rihanna + Damian & Ziggy Marley

Some other hit performances were Kelly Clarkson, Mumford & Sons, Alicia Keys with Maroon 5, and Carrie Underwood. A big miss for me unfortunately was Frank Ocean. I think he chose the wrong song and his voice usually sends chills down your spine yet last night it did the opposite.

Now let’s talk fashion!

Prior to the big day, CBS sent out a memo about the do’s & dont’s for the Grammy Awards attire. Needless to say, no one really cared about that memo LOL

Here were my favorite looks:

Rihanna in a custom red Azzedine Alaïa dress

Kelly Rowland…. it doesn’t matter who this gown was by (Georges Chakra couture) because she looked beyond perfection.

This was my favorite look of the night!

Florence Welch in Givency – while I am not big on those lump looking things, the color is amazing

Estelle in Genelle Brooks x Love Collins

I know that those last 2 outfits were on some Worst Dressed List but I love when people take a chance, especially at the Grammys. At least they didn’t show up dressed like Kaley Cuoco, while she looked cute this is the Grammys not Sunday Brunch with the girls.

Sorry… I know I’m a day late, I’ve been sick.

Welcome to February – may it be filled with good health & big dreams!

The President’s “better half”, as he says, looked absolutely stunning in a red Jason Wu gown at the Inaugural Ball.

Mrs. Obama also wore Jason Wu to the 2009 Inaugural Ball.

Looking back at various outfits, I think we can all agree that this First Lady is more than beauty & brains — she is a Fashion Icon!
